My reasoning was that I was already picking up drops from Countess minions without a second thought, and took a Lum from a rando mob on the way also. I figured that if I wanted to discount one drop under that context, morally I would have to discount ALL drops including potions, gems, items to sell for gold etc. I ended up keeping it and I feel okay about it! :)



I think a lawyer could get me off with this alone :thumbsup:


Sounds good, nice find :)

Fezzik gonna smash with that!

Since you did not specify that rule directly before you made it, i would say you are free to interpret it and make the change or more clear and direct rules -after- it becomes an issue. So i would keep the IK maul, but i would clarify the rule for myself for the future, if you understand. So that you don't have to face the same dilemma again.

I mean, you do a pretty good job of sticking to the rules, so one little benefit should be allowed.

Welp, I did keep the IK Maul and decided that in future WTs/Countess re-runs I'm just going to do /players 8 until right before entering level 5, then change to /players 1 right before entering.

I found an Um rune shortly after. Could go into Gloom or Crescent Moon, but I don't have the base for either right now.


Another Vamp Gaze shortly after that haha, I don't even have any MF on! Fezzik is one of the luckiest chars I have played so far :rofl:


Replaced my 8/6/15/13! I sold the 15% DR one but regretted it... I realized if I do make Crescent Moon for merc then he will have no LL with Gface :wallbash:

At this point I decided to keep the IK Maul, so I went to norm to shop a Treachery base for merc (so I could steal his), and to use my first re-stat.




Stats with Might but without fade/venom cast. Those resistances are scary. Going to have to really pay attention to the fade buff.

Stats with Fade/Venom on. 47% DR, 26 MDR, 15% LL, 7% ML. I'm pretty afraid of Fade wearing off mid-fight though :unsure:




Onward to Hell Meph! I want to get some more IK pieces and a reaper's toll. Maybe an Arreat's because my resistances are killing me!

Technically your rule states countess reruns at p1 not just only countess kill on p1. I would use it :thumbsup:

Thanks for feedback everyone, I'm using it :thumbsup: That's great because it means I don't have to upgrade or socket a 221% Ribby.

First PI pack downed without issue! 80 IAS IK maul + 45 IAS Treachery makes for a mean zerk game.


Merc died! :'( But I have to say, non-upgraded Meat Scraper is faring surprisingly well in Hell. He does have BO though.
